Physion

What Physion does

Physion is a single-location physiotherapy, sports, and nutrition practice operating under the legal name "Physion · Andre Scholz" (a sole proprietorship) at Hermannstraße 24 in Frankfurt am Main's Nordend district, Germany. The practice is owner-operated by Andre Scholz and employs approximately eight staff including physiotherapists, reception personnel, and a B.Sc. Oecotrophology nutrition specialist (Cora Scholz). Its core clinical framework is the McKenzie Method (Mechanical Diagnosis and Therapy / MDT), an internationally standardized approach for diagnosing and treating spinal and extremity pain, supplemented by manual therapy, Mulligan Concept, PNF, lymphatic drainage, CMD treatment, kinesio taping, electrotherapy, ultrasound, and heat therapy.

The business generates revenue through two parallel streams: physician-prescribed physiotherapy treatments reimbursed via German statutory or private health insurance (with patients paying a small co-payment), and self-pay services including sports and classical massage, myofascial therapy, personal training, back school courses, and nutritional counseling. Distribution is entirely direct and local — appointments are booked by phone, email, or contact form, with marketing limited to the practice's informational website (physion.de) and a Facebook page. Demand originates from physician referrals, direct inquiries, and organic word-of-mouth in the Frankfurt metropolitan area.

From an investment standpoint, Physion is a micro-scale, founder-dependent local services business with no external funding, no parent company, no digital platform, no app, no AI/ML capability, and no disclosed M&A or expansion activity. The practice's defensibility rests on the clinical credentials of its therapists and local reputation rather than any scalable structural advantage. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and there is no evidence of multi-site, franchise, or partnership-driven growth intent.
